Intuitively, a test with more assumptions has greater power than a test with fewer assumptions. This kind of examples are abundant in the nonparametric tests vs corresponding parametric ones. In general, the nonparametric tests are less efficient in terms of asymptotic relative efficiency (ARE) compared to corresponding parametric tests (Daniel, 1990). However, this is not always true. To test equal means under independent normal samples, the usual test involves using the t-distribution with the pooled estimator of the common variance. Adding the assumption of equal sample size, we may derive another test. In this case, two tests using more assumptions were performed for univariate (multivariate) cases. For these examples, it was found that the power function of a test with more assumptions is less than or equal to that of a test with fewer assumptions. This finding can be used as an expository example in master's mathematical statistics courses.

This is a succeeding article of J. Korean Optalmic Optics Society vol. 11(2) pp. 121-129(2006) [Research about the distribution of refractive errors in distinction of gender and at age of Kyonggi province's partial area]. The former article showed age-specific distribution of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism which generally appears in refractive errors. This paper aimed to investigate the change of refractive power and prevalence of refractive errors by age. Total 928 subjects were sampled and their refractive errors were determined using auto refractometer. As the results, change of refractive power of subjects appeared at the age about 40, and suddenly reduced over 46 years resulting in (+)refractive power at their fifties. Relative risks of refractive errors of myopia increased in younger subjects but the risks decreased in older subjects (over 46 years). On the other hand, the risks of hyperopia decreased as the age of subjects increase, but could increase to 0.24 (95% CI: 0.07-0.88) after 36 years. This results showed that presbyopia might progress more early when people were before 40 years.

We have calculated the power extraction efficiency and the lasing wavelength distribution of index-coupled DFB lasers at threshold for various kL and facet reflectivity combinations, and compared with those above-threshold. The power extraction efficiency increases as the asymmetry of the facet reflectivities increases. The power extraction efficiency above-threshold is slightly larger than that at threshold. Since the relative photon density around the center region increases as kL increases, the power extraction efficiency decreases. The uniformity of the distribution of lasing wavelength over the stop band increases due to the relief of mode degeneracy as the asymmetry of the facet reflectivities increases. In the case of AR-HR combination, the lasing wavelength distributions at threshold are similar to those above-threshold. However, in the case of AR-AR combination, the lasing wavelength at threshold is concentrated on both edges of the stop band, while it is concentrated only on the longer wavelength edge above-threshold. As kL increases, the range of the lasing wavelength distribution increases due to the increase of the stop band. The effect of AR reflectivity on the power extraction and the lasing wavelength distribution is very weak.

Coastal sediments collected near the Youngkwang Nuclear Power Plant were analysed for major(Al$_2$O$^_3$, Fe$^_2$O$^_3$, MgO, CaO, Na$^_2$O, K$^_2$O, TiO$^_2$, MnO), trace (Ba, Sr, V, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Zn, Pb) metal, and P$^_2$O$^_5$ contents. The composition of bulk metals from most stations fits within the range as those in the average crustal and sedimentary rocks, suggesting that the anthropogenic perturbation of these components is insignificant. The abundance and distribution of total contents for the majority of metals in the surface sediment could be explained by the grain size and were associated with mud (<63 ${\mu}$m) contents. However, distributions of Ca, K, Sr and Ba did not have any significant association with the sediment grain size. This may be due to the geochemical coherence among these metals in certain minerals abundant in coarse grained fractions. The distribution of Pb appears to be partly affected by the contribution from aerosol fallout. Using the R'-mode factor analysis, we show that the variance of the metal contents could be explained by four factors which account for 93.7% of the total variance. It appears that texturally controlled and/or sorting factors influenced by fine fraction are the most dominant factors which determine the relative abundance and distribution of metals in the study area.

This study was carried out to investigate the collection Efficiency of mass in collector step at the different of physical gas characterization. This work has focused on the dependence of the collection efficiency of mass in the collector zone of a two-stage set up field with gas temperature T and the dew point tmeperature. To identify the dependence of the mass collection efficiency on the Bounded plate of the collector zone MP.k by the spectre electric resistance of dust $p_e$. and the relative humidify ${\varphi}$, 20 at- tempts have been made with three different gas temperature ($50{\circ}C, 80{\circ}C, 110{\circ}C$) at different dew point. At the specific electric resistance of dust $p_e$=$10^6{\Omega}m$ which relative humidity corresponds to $\phi$ > 15%, a easy rise of the sounded plate secluded dust mass share was measured atwain. As the result of the higher cohesion imprisonment power due to the adsorbtion of particle, the rinse of the relative humidity developed on the particle surface. Therefore, the collection efficiency of mass was not predominant the high temperature T in the collector zone, neither was the pecific ellectric resistance of dust dependent.

To determine the pin power distribution without disassembling, HANARO fuel assemblies are gamma-scanned and then the distribution is reconstructed tv using the tomography method. The iterative least squares method (ILSM and the wavelet singular value decomposition method (WSVD) are chosen to solve the problem. An optimal convergence criterion is used to stop the iteration algorithm to overcome the potential divergence in ILSM. WSVD gives better results than ILSM , and the average values from the two methods give the best results. The RMSE (root mean square errors) to the reference data are 5.1, 6.6, 5.0, 6.5, and 6.4% and the maximum relative errors are 10.2, 13.7, 12.2, 13.6, and 14.3%, respectively. It is found that the effect of random positions of the pins is important. Although the effect can be accommodated by the iterative calculations simulating the random positions, the use of experimental equipment with a slit covering the whole range of the assembly horizontally is recommended to obtain more accurate results. We made a new apparatus using the results of this study and are conducting an experiment in order to obtain more accurate results.

Objectives : To evaluate the properness and effectiveness of the question categories concerning 'total physiognomy', used in Iksan Wonkwang Oriental Medicine. Methods: We statistically analyzed data from those 1335 patients focussing on 'relative discrimination ability' to sasang constructions and 'response ratio'. Patients included in this research are only those who had been well treated in Iksan Wonkwang Oriental Medicine during the Period of three years from 2000 to 2002. The data are obtained through the electronic chart developed by Kim Jong-Yeol, and analyzed using the statistical Package SPSS. Results: The first category for discriminating Taeum type, 'heavy and looking steady', has more discriminating power and effectiveness among women than men, and especially in wemen with an age of 21 or more. The second category for discriminating Soeum type, 'delicate and modest', is more discriminating and effective among men than women, and mostly among men with ages 21-40. The third category for Soyang type, 'fast and brave', is almost equally discriminating and effective to both women and men, especially among women with ages 40 or less and among men with ages 21 or more. Finally, the forth category for discriminating Taeyang type, 'progressive', is neither discriminating nor effective among most the women than men in all age groups. Conclusions: The definition of 'relative discriminating power of constitution' and 'response ratio' are well evaluating the properness and effectiveness of the question categories regarding 'total physiognomy'. The first category is most discriminating and effective among women with ages 20 or less, and the second among 21-40 year old men, the third among women with ages 40 or less and among men with ages 21 or over. The forth category is neither discriminating nor effective.

Multispectral scanner data collected by LANDSAT-1 over the mid West Sea of Korea were analyzed and interpreted for delineation of coastal features and turbidity distribution patterns during different portions of the tidal cycle. Imagery from two successful LANDSAT-1 overpasses of the area in October 1972 and in October 1973 had been used to prepare schematic maps of coastal features and turbidity distributions. Color composite imagery of LANDSAT MSS 4, 5 and 7 gave the best representation of shorelines, coastlines and tidal flats. MSS 5 imagery was most effective in differentiating relative turbidity levels through density slicing techniques. Referring to the tidal power development of Garolim Bay, the basin area measurements assuming dyke construction at the bay entrance, have been carried out on the coastal reature maps comiled from LANDSAT imagery, and those results were correlated with existing data. General areal patterns of surface turbidity distribution in the study area revealed close similarity with bathymetry of the area. Synoptic circulation patterns were also well discriminated from the LANDSAT imagery using the suspended sediment as a tracer.

An experimental study to identify the energized status of the 22.9kV underground power cable by the detection of vibration has been performed. We have derived that there exists vibration at double the line frequency in live cables by electromagnetic force. The relative amplitudes of the cable vibration according to the energized status of the cable were calculated by computer simulation. The cable vibration can also be picked up by accelerometer. A prototype was tested on the underground distribution system in Chonan substation, KEPCO. Comparison between simulation results and field test results was performed. The results showed that the energized status of the calble can be identified by measuring the vibration of the cable using accelerometer.

Security of a power system refers to its robustness relative to a set of imminent disturbances (contingencies) during operation. The socially optimal solution for the actuall level of generation/consumption has been well-known spot pricing at shot-run marginal cost. The main disadvantage of this approach arises because serious contingencies occur quite infrequently. Thus by establishing contractual obligations for contingency offering before an actual operation time through decision feedback we can obtain socially optimal level of system security. Under probabilistic precontract pricing the operating point is established at equal incremental cost of the expected short-run and collapse cost of each participant. Rates for power generation/consumption and for an offer to use during a contingency, as well as information on the probability distribution of contingency need for each participant, are derived so that individual optimization will lead to the socially optimal solution in which system security is optimized and the aggregate benefit is maxmized.
